Profiles and spatial distributions of heavy metals, microbial communities, and metal resistance genes in sediments from an urban river
The occurrence and propagation of resistance genes due to exposure to heavy metals (HMs) in rivers is an emerging environmental issue. Little is known about resistance genes in microbial communities in river sediments with low HM concentrations. The profiles and spatial distributions of HMs, the mic...
